All denied as bullshit yesterday / last night.

By Eddie wasn't it? Not by the AFL? I've seen a text message that may suggest it's not over just yet.


Probably the same text we've all seen.

I tend to agree with you, where there's smoke there's usually fire.....

I would have squeezed David Young in.

Scott Russell perhaps stiff. A better footballer than 3 of the 4 on the bench IMHO.

Adam Treloar to break into the side if 100 games is a selection requirement,

Scott Russell has claims....hated Williams playing for free kicks all the time at Sydney.

Wright still ahead of Thomas, Russell and Williams.

I'd agree with that, excellent player Wright and a big key to their 90' flag

Ouch.


‘Distinct and egregious’: Collingwood found GUILTY of systemic racism

Collingwood is guilty of systemic racism, according to an independent review commissioned by the club.

The Magpies appointed distinguished professor Larissa Behrendt in July to lead the investigation into allegations of racism and said they expected it to produce a “full and frank account”.

The Magpies’ integrity committee investigated after premiership player Heritier Lumumba claimed he was subjected to racial slurs, including the nickname Chimp, during his 10-year playing career at the club.

“There is a gap between what Collingwood Football Club says it stands for and what it does,” the report says.

“While claims of racism have been made across the AFL, there is something ­distinct and egregious about Collingwood’s history.”

Lumumba, who was traded to Melbourne at the end of the 2014 season, opted against taking part in the investigation, and therefore his specific claims were not investigated.

Behrendt said his claims deserved a full and separate investigation and she was still scathing in her review of the club’s overall culture.

“What is clear is that racism at the club has resulted in profound and enduring harm to First Nations and African players. The racism affected them, their communities, and set dangerous norms for the public,” the report said.

“There is a strong view external to the club that, whenever there is a racist incident in the AFL, Collingwood is somehow involved with it.

“This perception has led some to conclude that Collingwood has become synonymous with off-field and on-field racism in Australian sport and others to observe that there is something distinctive about racism at the Collingwood Football Club.

“As one person we spoke to said – ‘if you look at every high-profile incident of racism in the game, Collingwood is there somewhere.’”

The 35-page report called “Do Better” strongly recommended Collingwood redefine its values to include anti-racism.

“While claims of racism have been made across the AFL, there is something distinct and egregious about Collingwood’s history.

“In the thirty interviews undertaken for this review, there was no clear consensus about what the values of the Collingwood Football Club were.

“Collingwood claims to be guided by four formal values – belonging, commitment, realising potential and caring. There is a gap between what Collingwood Football Club says it stands for and what it does.”
